Clemente, one of the oldest and best (drama-free) private worlds is looking for 4 new owners for next season. We have no world-specific rules to worry about--just classic HBD. We've just rolled over and are looking for new owners asap so we can get started. Sitemail me if you're interested. And if you're new to HBD, that's fine...I can tutor you for a while to get you on your feet. Open Franchises:

San Francisco (NL West, 75-87) - After 17 seasons of relative mediocity, sonofthebear is ready to let someone else helm the San Francisco franchise. With not all that much to work with right now in the majors, this looks like a rebuild.http://www.whatifsports.com/HBD/Pages/Popups/FranchiseProfile.aspx?fid=575
sonofthebear is coming back!
Detroit (AL North, 85-77) - With a couple of nice pieces to build around (like Benitez and Lima) or trade, not too many financial commitments, and a good season last year, this should be a pretty good landing spot for a new owner.http://www.whatifsports.com/HBD/Pages/Popups/FranchiseProfile.aspx?fid=548

Rochester (AL North, 84-78) - A storied franchise in Clemente is looking for a new owner for the first time in 10 seasons. Only a few seasons after tatankawya led the Red Wings to back-to-back championships for second time in franchise history, he's calling it quits and Rochester faithful are looking for someone to take over.

Santa Cruz (AL West, 61-101) - A few seasons ago, Doogan, one of the founding member of Clemente called it quits after 23 seasons, 14 divisional titles, and 2 AL championships. They had a mass Free Agent departure before season 23 which explains their 7 (count 'em, SEVEN) first round picks in the Season 23 draft, which should form a nice new nucleus.
